Nuno Gomes-Loureiro, MIT- Host: William Daughton
- Host Org: T-CNLS
- Visit Dates: Feb. 1st, 2023 to May. 31st, 2023.
- I am a theoretical plasma physicist with interests ranging from fundamental plasma
theory to fusion, space and astrophysical plasmas. I tend to work on nonlinear
problems of plasma dynamics that can typically only be addressed via state-of-the-art
numerical computations or, in some cases, approximate analytical methods guided by
a phenomenological understanding of the phenomena at hand; often, I employ a
combination of both. Rather than focus on the details of plasma behavior in specific
environments, I frequently opt to identify and study the essential ingredients of a
given plasma phenomenon, thereby rendering my results more widely applicable
than otherwise. Thus, some of my research has been found relevant to a large variety
of environments, from fusion devices and the solar corona to exotic astrophysical
phenomena such blazars and gamma-ray bursts.

(XCP-2) as well as other members of the groups to discuss the development of robust,
higher-order methods for hydrodynamics. As part of his visit, Dr. Maier will give a talk

- Inferring classical objectivity from monogamy of correlations
I discuss quantitative bounds to the amount of classical and quantum correlations which can be shared between a quantum system and a network of independent observers that monitor the system environment. As a result, the amount of quantum information that an observer can extract about a quantum system from monitoring a small environment fragment is almost zero, while the classical information is inevitably almost maximal. I discuss the result in the context of the Quantum Darwinism program. Then, I show how such monogamy relations can be verified without performing hard numerical optimizations, by recasting them in terms of the conditional mutual information.
